Very good video and easy explanation to all the questions I have been asking myself, like WHY UPGRADE? your conclusions are exactly what I had been thinking, that until support is withdrawn in 2025, and Windows 10 is working, go with "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" Thanku for excellent video.
any thing 12 gen or higher does work better w11 my 12 gen cpu is crap on w10
Windows 11 might be adopted better if it dropped the stupid processor requirement.
I think the TPM requirement is actually valid, but they originally toyed with the idea of letting owners of TPM 1.2 to get Windows 11 before cancelling that… Funny enough, if you get a LEGIT Windows 11 ISO and try to install it on a system after 2013 with UEFI and Secure Boot along with TPM 1.2 it won't fight you…
I am behind a good firewall and also have a strong policy of conduct, thus, I will not upgrade.
I have some computers with Windows 11 but unused. I prefer Linux. And, if really needed, a virtual machine.
Windows 11 break the most important service I use 'print spooler'. They also have UI bugs and they're planning to nuke control panel. So I degrade my laptop and pc in windows 10, and planning to dual boot to linux.
I will be moving to Linux, I don't like the direction Microsoft is going.
It's NOT TPM, IT'S THE START MENU AND DESKTOP. So I plan on using 10 until EOL, then switching using a debloated ISO and all the hacks to fix the UI. That said, I'm currently using tumbleweed Linux, and none of the other distros are worth using at all. Dual boot is fine, but games with raytracing need Windows. Linux comes close, but not close enough, and it is not simple to fix anything that doesn't work.
I've been around since back when you had to load MS-DOS first and then Windows 3.x on top of it from "floppies", and am currently IT support for a major aerospace company. There are only a couple real reasons why Windows 11 adoption is so slow, (1) Windows 11 is garbage just like Windows Me, Vista, Windows 8 etc were garbage only worse, and (2) people who know better are telling anyone who'll listen to stay off of it. Computer people know about the admitted reduced functionality and compatibility vs Win 10, ever more bloated crappy imbedded apps & "features" no one asked for (and the IT gymnastics required to get rid of them), or MS's truly awe-inspiring idea of on by default Bitlocker for Home users… And the list goes on. Windows 11 is good for Microsoft and the hell with regular people; another cheap shot at tricking folks into Microsoft accounts, more sideways herding people into another pay us forever subscription service (just like Office 365), AND intentionally causing the e-wasting of huge amounts of otherwise perfectly serviceable hardware through their bu11sh!t "requirements". Requirements that AGAIN do nothing for their users, and really only help companies like Dell & HP etc sell more new PCs, and therefore Microsoft to sell MORE "licenses" aka subscriptions. But never mind that Win 11 does NOTHING worthwhile for users, and does all the garbage stuff instead, none of that "geeky" stuff matters to most people that just want to Facebook, email, Amazon, Youtube, and maybe pay a few bills etc…..
What REALLY matters is that IF you know better, make sure you look out for those who don't, and keep on spreading the word….. Stay off of Windows 11.
Well, they did say that Xbox 360 couldn't run without a Kinect at one point… But money talks, and when their shareholders start getting cold feet seeing their sales figures, I'm sure they'll rethink their approach, just like they did with Windows 8, vista, etc. I mean, they will happily support windows XP to this day if you pay then enough (like the US military does), so what's stopping them from extending the lifetime of the operating system that's already their best selling product.
At this point, I'm beginning to wonder if them circulating between making a Windows that's meh and then a Windows that's really good (in comparison to the previous one) is a part of their marketing strategy. Like downplaying someone to lower their expectations before making your actual offer.
I can't believe you didn't even mention the fact that Microsoft themselves will be offering regular consumers a paid annual subscription for Windows 10 updates up to 3 years. Sure the Business and Enterprise prices are outrageously expensive, but I'm thinking a lot of people will be waiting to see what the prices will be for regular users, if they don't want to jump to Linux.
Why you think that PRESSURE is needed to change? Go look into a mirror and press S.
They can't force it on someone if they don't have the requisit hardware.
The horrendous UI is what keeps me on 10. Everything, EVERYTHING takes longer and more mouse clicks to achieve. They wiped out so much of what made 10 so usable, and added so much junk that not only nobody asked for, but when faced with it, nobody liked. From truncated context menus, to the appalling start menu, we just hate it.
Ironically it runs brilliantly on my first gen Surface Pro of 11 years ago.
I'm upgrading to Linux from Windows 10, completely done with Microsoft and their shady nonsense.
no i dont care about losing support or whatever people really do make to big a deal out of it just stay of the kind of sites you know you shouldnt be on anyway and youll be fine.
I can't tell if Microsoft is being incompetent or malicious the past decade but I know 1 thing we are all fed up and sick of it. They are gonna learn the hard way you can't control your customers they will always find a way around your bull shit and if they can't they may even go to a competitor to spite you.
All of my 12th gen computers are able to run Windows 11, I disabled TPM in the BIOS so they can't run that hot garbage from Microshaft. I'm moving to Linux Mint.
The Crowdstrike failure shows why TPM 2.0 is absolutely pointless. If your OS vendor doesn't completely lock down third party access to the kernel or doesn't give the user a way to lock it down, the TPM is just there for DRM that only hurts the user.
Microsoft works against their customers' best interests. That fact alone is enough to jump ship on Windows 11.
Do not forget Windows 12 coming soon and from my resources they being told Windows 12 should be out between October 2024 to February 2025 with features that my resources said would better than what we got now. One these features are file system structure and improvements a whole file system structure that you will find on Linux operating systems. Note: you have to take what is told with a grain of salt. Windows 12 has be kept very hush hush. So much real information about it. I love Linux more but I need to use Windows due to certain applications I use do not run on Linux.
I can TLDR this, its trash
I switched to Linux 1 month ago. It's simply better. I tried win 11 but I couldn't stand it. It's becoming more and more like mac and I hate it. Then you have the ads for their damn services that pop out all the time.
aaaaalmost but not quite
from my perspective if a windows 11 interface alone was better than 10 many people would transition even on "unsupported hardware" because there are ways to do so
but if interface is similar enough but somewhat infuriating, many ways of doing stuff on the system is removed in favor of not yet proven tools. and every update seems to be a way of microsoft fighting with the user so the computer looks like microsoft want and not how user want
it is no wonder people on supported hardware don't switch or go back rater than leming march into shiny new os
we were lied once that windows 10 was the last windows so now we waiting for 12
Windows 11 works fine. With an offline account, TPM disabled after install and ExplorerPatcher I can't even notice the difference between Win10 and 11. People are mostly scared about nothing.
I am currently planning on switching to Linux completly until next October when Win10 supports ends. I used Linux years before windows 11, but it was never an alternative for me. through the Steam Deck I got really used to it and thought it can be a good idea to test on an old Laptop again. So currently my Gaming PC and the Gaming Laptop of my GF are the last windows machines here, evrythin else is allready Linux.
I think we all should thank Valve for doing such a great job on supporting and pushing Linux to Gamers who all can now evaluate Linux as a new Alternative. If this continues, we may have 20% Linux Users in the next 10 years.
Greetings from Germany
99,999% of youtube comments " I switched to Linux"
I'm also prefer win10 insted of 11, but using MacOS as my primary more than 5 years already, and happy
I dont know how to set up the TPM in BIOS. cant seem to make it work so i gave up
Windows 11 takes away a lot of functionality. e.g. Toolbars. Also the ability to launch Android apps (Windows Subsystem for Android) is being dropped. And then there's the privacy issues with Microsoft having to walk back software that continually snapshots your desktop – ironic for a company pushing security with TPM. That's because it's not about security at all – it's about them controlling your machine.
W11 has "Vista problem" – HW requirements that are not in many peoples possesion already and really nothing that would justify making the upgrade. Maybe even less so that W11 has some features of W10 removed and "performance anomalies" for some hardware parts (AMD CPUs). The end of support might push somebody who is in need of upgrading PC (and companies that are required to run on "supported system"), but nothing else, there are people using W7 and XP today…
But i like windows 11, it isn't that bad
"Upgrade" ? more like "Downgrade" :d
Recall… TPM… more clicks to do the same job as on win 10… everything hidden behind "Show more options"… and the requirements… ew, i hated to even go to win 10 with all the clunkiness, honestly i've been using win 8.1 (win 8.0 was very bad so ew), and i loved it, idc others say its bad, it was very fine for me, if i could, i would stay on it, or even better… win 7 !
Yes
I've deliberately switched off tpm to block win11 and haven't updated my bios since March this year because I have heard horror stories that Asus removed the tpm off choice, it's hilarious to see windows say my 4 month old high end build can't have win 11
the number 1 reason people are not upgrading is. Windows is trying to hardware lock your computer in the bios level to use windows. 11 a security nightmare on the same level of the spy ware infested windows 10 iso available on torrent sites. Windows has decided they want to try and force a mac or android level control over your os choices. If you had a dual boot you know why you finally deleted the windows partition.
I am waiting for Windows 12 and hoping it will be good.
Moved all my family and friends PCs/Laptops from Windows 7/10 to Linux Mint. Much more stable, easier to control, and less resource intensive. For what we do, we don't need software outside of Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Open Office, and basic file management. I do some light CAD work with Sketchup 2017 which works great under Bottles, same for some Steam Gaming via Proton.
I nearly dislike windows 11 as windows 8
Linux DE's have been wildly more secure than windows for decades without tpm, secure boot, and without e-wasting trillions of pounds of perfectly functioning hardware by 2025. Security reasons are no excuse. Gaming is also noticeably worse and AMD CPU's are still suffering performance wise.
They should be obligated to support the systems that they sold us
So , can’t use my keyboard to get in Social Sercurity ; ???
